Homeschool Planning Checklist

[Pages:5]Homeschool Planning Checklist

The following checklist is designed to get some ideas and goals planned out for your homeschool year. Although we can plan as much as we want to, we do need to adapt to any changes that occur throughout the year. Listen to our daily rhythm, create goals and plans, but be happy to revisit this list.

2-3 MONTHS PRIOR TO SEPTEMBER (OR HOMESCHOOL START DATE) Write down goals for the seasons. Write down goals for the year of what you'd like to accomplish. Figure out what extra-curricular activities are important Determine budget for curriculum or resources. Create a binder to store and organize ideas, worksheets, receipts, etc. Look up curriculum and curriculum reviews. If unschooling write down lists of ideas and books. Create book lists of what you can borrow from your local library or if you have to

buy any. Look second hand or in homeschool coop groups. Buy curriculum and resources.

1 MONTH OR 2 WEEKS BEFORE HOMESCHOOLING STARTS Create a daily or weekly schedule for each child. Look over resources to become familiar. Sit down with your learner(s) and ask them what they want to learn. Organize your homeschool area or room. Buy any final resources or curriculum needed. Optional: plan a fun first day back at `school' (we go to the beach for outside

learning!) Enroll learner in extracurricular activities such as dance, sport, art classes, etc. Reserve a blocks of your day for schooling, others for household chores, etc. Remember to schedule mom replenish time Moms deserve a break too.
